What the Katana–TLogistics integration does
TLogistics is a family-owned European e-fulfillment and logistics provider. It specializes in warehousing, order fulfillment, and cross-border distribution, particularly for beauty, cosmetics, and medical-product brands.
By connecting Katana with TLogistics, you can:
Import orders as sales orders: TLogistics orders become Katana sales orders that keep updating through status changes, with fulfillments, carrier and tracking details.
Send sales orders to TLogistics for fulfillment: A Katana sales order is pushed to TLogistics when it reaches the Ready for fulfillment status.
Handle cancellations automatically: A cancelled TLogistics order is removed from Katana after its fulfillments are reverted.
Import products by SKU: Products match existing Katana products by SKU, and SKU aliases bridge mismatched SKUs.
See read-only stock levels: TLogistics stock appears as external inventory at each warehouse's mapped Katana location.
Track inbound shipments as stock transfers: Each TLogistics inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that updates as goods are received.
